Description
Book SynopsisRelaunching in 2012, the Specialist Periodical Report, Electrochemistry presents comprehensive and critical reviews in all aspects of the field. Specialist Periodical Reports present comprehensive and critical reviews of the current literature, with contributions from across the globe. Relaunching in 2012 with a new editorial team (Compton and Wadhawan) the eleventh volume of Electrochemistry has a special focus on Nanosystems. Topics examined in this volume include single event electrochemistry, nanoparticle electrocatalysis, bipolar electrochemistry in the nanosciences, nanocarbon electrochemistry, electrochemistry within templatee nanosystems and electrochemistry within liquid nanosystems. This volume is a key reference in the field of electrochemistry, allowing the reader to easily become aquainted with the latest research and opinion. Purchasers of the print edition can register for free access to the electronic edition by returning the enclosed registration card.
Trade ReviewThis book provides a timely review of how electrochemistry has been used in the elucidation of events taking place at the nano-scale, either in space or time. This has been achieved by creating a good, balanced mix between theory and applications Each chapter commences with a clear and brief introduction that helps the reader become familiar with the topic presented and with the aims pursued by the authors. The book makes very pleasant reading for research scientists in the area of electrochemistry and helps the reader to gain new knowledge, without going into too much in detail, on how electrochemistry could be used to investigate events taking place at the nano-scale. -- Dr. V. Beni * Biosensors & Bioelectronics (Elsevier) *
Each chapter can be read as a stand-alone review of the area in question and each is carefully written and constructed; a gentle introduction to the field is quickly followed by an in-depth review of the relevant primary literature it will be an extremely valuable source of information for years to come -- Darren Walsh Unversity of Nottingham * Newsletter of the RSC electrochemistry interest group *
